So I'm sureim not the only1 with the problem, when updatingto the newest Sense Home Update, the launcher itself works fine, but All articleson Blinkfeed disappear and even when clicking the buttons to search for content or add content, it doesn't do a thing... Does anybody know of a fix for this??
I've tried everything, wiping data, cache, I've even tried on a completely clean flash of rom (NuSense7), and still nothing...
Any advice would be greatly appreciated
Found the way to fix it , (actually I Didn't find it) , credits to @Flyhalf205 for discovering this fix: before updating sense home, edit build.prop line : ro.product.brand- Verizon, to ro.product.brand HTC

Hi guys,i've just ran into a problem, whenever i install a new app and try to add it's widget to the homescreen i cant find them!i installed and re-installed many apps n even wiped cache but still no new widgets added to the widget list
Can someone please help me?
Thanks in advance
Every app doesn't have a widget. Read from the market description if it's even supposed to have a widget and then report back.
Thanks for you're help Hawks556,in the market it does say it has several widgets,and to be specific its PlayerPro..and to explain more i had PowerAMP and i uninstalled it,after i discovered this this problem i re-installed back and also it didn't have the widgets although its used to..
I appreciate you're help
Allright, just had to make sure there aren't any confusions. Tried the PlayerPro app myself and I have no problems with thi widgets. What rom are you using?
I am using Android Revolution HD Beta4 (gingerbread) and i didn't have any problems so far..sorry to trouble you my friend
Have you tried wiping dalvik cache from recovery?
Yea i tried that but also no result
The apps aren't installed on the SDcard by any chance?
Man you are my hero!i just moved them to the phone and the widgets showed up!i was just about to do a full wipe and re-install everything!thank you very very much!but just so i know,why didn't they show when they were on the SD carf?
I'm not sure about the exact reason but I think it's just built like that. It takes a while for the phone to initialize the sd card when you boot (you can see the icon in the statusbar). This in turn would probably result in some errors when loading the widgets from the sdcard as it's not ready yet. I hope you can make some sense of this
P.S. you can always hit the thanks button
Man am really thankful for ur help,and be sure i will press that button as soon as am back to my laptop,am using xda app right now..
Again,thank you

ok, will try, thank you for now.
Didn't get FC's when you said - try to backup the data then full wipe - data/cache/sd-ext/dalvik cache and re-flash.
Sounds like updated version of market/calendar/sense launcher is causing the trouble.
also try the above mentioned aligning before re-flashing.
did all mentioned above, but decided to go for cyanogen, for now.
thank you all for help.
dik moc.
When I first installed InsertCoin ROM, my People's process kept force closing. Not sure if this is related. And when starting for the first time, quite some number of processes force closed. So what I did was, I installed ROM manager and clicked fix permissions. And restarted the phone, this made everything stable no more force closes.
However!! The people's process still force closes if I access individual contacts information. Because of this, I avoided accessing people's contacts directly. I used workarounds such as using the HTC dialer to filter out names to obtain numbers. I had no problems creating new contacts so I got used to this issue.
My friend asked me to factory reset through settings. I was confused how this will work since I thought that the people's process force closes because of an issue in the ROM (maybe a bug). I was wrong, after factory reset to default, this issue was resolved.
Now Insert Coin Rom is perfect for me. The only thing that does not work correctly is my hibernate. I am having a discussion on that now to obtain more information.
Hmm interesting.will give IC another go. I didnt have any problems you are having. But thank you.

wipe all data user
i dont have problem with this rom
W'ats? I have been using 1.0.8 since the day it was released and I have no problems at all.
I just did full wipe and flashed it...t'at is all..
I'm also using IC 1.0.8 (CM7r2, since it seemed considerably faster) - So far I've had no issues at all, loving it.

Been using InsertCoin CM7 1.0.8, with cm7r2 hboot for a few days and everything seems fine
Not sure if it's gingerbread, new htc sense or InsertCoin, or all of them but loving the new rom! (only thing that bugs me is that I prefer the old htc weather animations...)
do you wipe all your phone?
i've no problem with ic
yep, i wiped my phone - data/factory reset, cache, dalvik cache.
though i sort of take back what I said... having minor problems - no FC, or infinite loadings, but i see my SIM contacts when I hit phone/dialer, even though they have been hidden in the people app. I believe this is causing a second issue with messages being unable to find the right facebook/google avatar.
but other than that, seems to be working fine
Hi all,
i am quite new as a poster in this forum and unfortunatelly i cannot post into the dev threads.
I am running my DHD on LeeDroid 3.2.0 since today. I wiped my device completly before and applied the fulll wipe also before to format to ext4. Since this upgrade my friendstream widget cannot be refreshed manually. The normal update cycle is working fine, also when i reboot the phone its updating the widget. But i cannot hit the refresh button on the widget itself and also when i enter the friendstream and press menu i cannot trigger a refresh as this option is shown but not clickable. Does anyone else have the same problem and have maybe also a solution?
Thanks in advance.
Oliver
I reflashed the whole chain this morning and the issue is gone. Thread can be closed.
no issues on that but 3.2.1 is out and soon a rosie 3d all in one
Hi,
I am using RunnyDrOiD v5.0 on my desire z with sense 3.5 / Android 2.3.5
Out of sudden, and without installing new application, I am not able to see the background of the widgets (weather, clock, mail ...) and the icon description on the screen locker are showing in big red.
Attached are the pictures of whats going on.
Any idea what is the problem and the possible resolutions? Hope I don't have to install the ROM again and wipe data.
Thanks in advance.
Seems like your launcher doesn't start properly.. If rebooting doesn't solve your problem, then you can try to reflash without wiping. All System files are then put back to their original state, but your settings and installed apk's are not touched.
If that doesn't work, I think that you'll have to reflash with a full wipe.

Thanks man... SOLVED!
Re-flashed the ROM without wipe and everything works fine now.
Any idea why this happened? so that to avoid in future.
Saldy I have no clue.. Most likely there were some settings wrong or the launcher took to much ram memory to start properly, but I can't tell for sure. If this happends again, just reflash, and it works again.
Hi. Cudnt ask this in the ROM thread so hope someone here can answer. Flashed the latest Sparkplug ROM. While setting up my screen I noticed there wasnt a music app. I thought maybe I froze it but the ony thing available is a music widget. When I expanded the zip using 7zip I see data/app contains htcmusic.apk but cannot find it anywhere on my phone. Cannot access the widget from the home screen widget setup cause its not listed as a widget.

That may have been removed or broken in the process of optimizing the ROM (I can't speak for the developer, hopefully he will have a better answer). For now, you can install something like Google Play Music which works well on Sense ROMs. The only thing it will lack that the HTC music player has is lockscreen controls.
Edit: You say htcmusic.apk is in /data/app/ ? It should be in /system/app/ to work, if my thinking is correct.
I think I know what the problem is. You need to boot into recovery, format /system, then re-install the ROM.
back story:
I managed to pick up another inc today and flashed Sparkplug to it, I'm planning on setting it up for my wife. I had the same problem, music and many other of the HTC sense apps were installed, though they did not show up in the menu, and the sense widgets didn't show up in the widgets menu either, something was definitely up with the Sense UI stuff, though the phone ran fine and some of the apps (like flashlight) worked just fine. I had rooted, downgraded, and gotten s-off, then installed the ROM. I had done a factory reset but I had not wiped /system, and that was the problem I think. I installed the ROM the first time with ClockworkMod recovery (I figured that would be needed for s-off to work).
Anyway, I installed TWRP recovery (because I like that better), wiped /system, cache, and dalvik, then installed the ROM again (did NOT do a factory reset this time). As I suspected, all the HTC apps are there and work now, including the music player. I highly doubt usinc TWRP or CWN will make a difference, but I think you need to format /system and reinstall the ROM.
Ok. I tried it. Formatted the system & reflashed. Music APK still was not available but the music widget was. Then I installed ADW launcher & the widget disappeared. So if I want music, I cant use ADW. Think ill just head on back over to touch of blue.
music.apk on Sparkplug
Noticed the same thing here. Anyone know where to get music.apk and how to properly install it? Thanks.
Edit: Never mind, found the answer. I can't post outside links yet so... Google "612827 need music apk file" and that should get you a link to androidforums.com. It's for the Galaxy but the file identified in comment #5 worked for me. Just ran it from my Internet browser using "file:///sdcard/Music.apk" and everything worked. Hope this helps the OP if he is still looking for an answer.
